Sorry, I haven't posted lately. I have been wrapped up with all of the business taxes (that took forever to sort, compile, add....bla, bla, bla). Now that that is over I have been busy with loads of orders, of which I am extremely grateful for. Thank you guys and gals in ATC land!!

For days now I have been trying to post all of the new products that I have ordered, and I find that I still am not done. And you should see my desk! Don't worry, I won't be posting a picture of that. You'll have to check out all of the new things that I have added recently. Just go to the site and click on the "What's new" arrow. You'll see new items from 2 different distributors that I ordered from, tons of products from 7 Gypsies, an order of cool stuff from Artchix Studio (wait until to see the German Scrap I bought from them; don't have that on the site yet), Charms from Artgirlz (not on site yet), collage sheets from Altered Pages, more stamps from Catslife Press, more products from Crafty Secrets, (I haven't even received any of these orders yet!) And I now I will be carrying most of the products Tim Holtz uses in his monthly challenges. Here is his blog addy if you don't have it. I frequent it often: http://timholtz.typepad.com/ I haven't received my "Wanted" paper yet, by Basic Grey(that's the paper he features this month), but I will be adding that to his Monthly Challenge catagory on the site. Here's the link to that: http://youratcstore.com/index.php?cPath=78 I also found a great site to order charms from. Like crowns, birds, wings etc. Oh I can't wait!! And, and... I am hoping to be able to purchase some of the NEW Prima Artful Collage Flowers that Tim Holtz just mentioned on his blog that he is taking to his Alaskan Crafting Class Cruise. I want to buy a variety so that you will get some of each type. I will hopefully be ordering that soon too. Oh, I almost forgot, I purchased some Clear Acrylic Covers and some Clip Board Wood Covers with some Antique Brass O'Wire Binding for my Zutter Bind-it-All machine. I will be creating some mini ATC albums once I find the right kind of paper I want to use for the pages of the album. You know, clear albums are in, so wait until you see these! I'll just be binding them with these cool products, and you guys can do the rest. I also have my technique for the week, but haven't taken pictures of that yet. Hopefully, I will post that over the weekend.

Woooo, no wonder I'm so busy, and have had no time to make any ATCs! Yah, my family wonders where I'm at these days too. Check back often to see if I've gone mad yet, or become buried in paperwork and have locked myself in my workshop!!! LOL!! I do it all for you!!

About Me

Owner of yourATCstore an online store full of everything you need for making your Artist Trading Cards. Our Motto: Let us be your Artist Trading Card store! A FREE ATC kit is included with every order, and the kit's themes change every month.
I have a great hubby, 3 wonderful children, 3 grand babies, and a house full of pets. I also love the Caribbean and travel there whenever I can. The beautiful turquoise blue Caribbean Ocean, and their laid back attitude is just what you need to truly relax. I have a great love for nature and love birds both inside my home (2 cockatiels and 1 male canary to be exact), and the feather friends in my backyard.
I started making greeting cards in 1992 and have been creating artwork ever since. I make scrapbooks from our family vacations, do altered artwork, needlework, knitting, collage, and of course have a huge addiction to ATCs! You can often find me at the computer, in my office, on the phone with 2 birds; one on each shoulder, cooking, reading an art book or magazine, or in my workshop.
Please feel free to add our store and/or blog link to your blogs, swapping groups, etc.
